Book Description
Piers Garron took his unexpected inheritence of Normanhurst very seriously. He gave up his life in South Africa and returned to England, to take up the position of village squire which the old house had brought him. He would settle down, he decided, learn all about the estate, marry...choosing carefully, of course. Someone suitable, poised and elegant. Someone, for instance, like Eve Shandon, who would in any case have been mistress of Normanhurst had his cousin Rex not been killed. Certainly someone quite unlike Eve's stepdaughter, untidy, defiant little Rilla, whose face seemed, nevertheless, to come so often into his thoughts.
